For the President 2021
Nevanpää, Annika

I want to lead a student movement where everyone feels relevant, and is a relevant part of the community. Together, we can build a more equal world based on well-being, justice and education.
Sandroos, Aleksi
The Student Union of the University of Vaasa
I’m a productive and unifying leader who listens and has expertise, and I’m not afraid to leave things unaddressed. Under my leadership, the student movement will work better together, listen and be more transparent. Learn more: bit.ly/meidanliike.
Virtanen, Teemu

If I’m elected, SYL will get an experienced, competent, and empathic leader with the ability to unite the student movement. Under my leadership, SYL will ensure that, after the current exceptional year, sufficient investment is made in education, wellbeing, and support services.

For the Board 2021
Jäppinen, Ville
Student Union of Tampere University
My SYL is a voice for university students that is active, communicative and on its way to building a better future. That is the kind of union I want to be a part of building next year. You can find me on Twitter @jappinenville or on my campaign page trey.fi/ville-syl2021.
Kouzmitchev, Konstantin
Student Association of National Coalition Party
As a child of an immigrant family, I have a clear view of, and a burning desire to champion, international students’ issues in Finland and Europe. Equality has not yet been fully achieved in our universities or labor markets, where we must leave no hiding place for prejudice.
Kyllönen, Riku-Petteri
The Student Union of the University of Helsinki
The post-pandemic period will be very different from before. By electing me, SYL will have a defender with a far-reaching vision, who has the ability and passion to lead the way in ongoing social development.
Rouvari, Akseli
The Student Union of the University of Helsinki
A wealth of ideas and creativity, the ability to learn quickly, my nature as a people person and team player, the ability to meet people with empathy and by listening. Insight into difficult issues concerning students. These are the reasons to elect me to SYL’s board!

Saarinen, Camilla
The Student Union of the University of Turku
Why should I be chosen for SYL: SYL needs a determined, critical thinker who wants to understand and develop the organization as a whole. I have expertise, enthusiasm, and determination, and I want to promote students’ interests to the best of my ability!

Tenhovuori, Saara
The Student Union of the University of Eastern Finland
As a trustee, I get things done and I’m highly motivated: because of my own education, it’s natural for me to defend educational issues. My extensive experience and understanding of higher education activities are absolutely necessary in the board.
See you in the General Assembly 12.-13.11.!
